“Excellent location, clean and comfortable accommodation.”

“This accommodation exceeded all our expectations on every level.”

The cottage, set in the lovely grounds of the owners home, had everything we needed for our four week stay and it was spotlessly clean. The attention to detail was the best we have experienced in any of our previous bookings through Sykes.
Ron and Carol were the perfect hosts and nothing was too much trouble for them. We loved the fresh eggs (provided by your rescued chickens) and the extras provided for our first days stay.
We know where we will be staying on our next trip from Australia.
We wish Carol and Ron every success as their hard work should be rewarded.

“The Lodge is a fab little cottage set in a very large garden that makes it very dog friendly.”

Great hosts on hand too. Wonderful walks in the Thetford forest only minutes away. A very enjoyable holiday, we shall certainly return.

Mr BettonJuly 2018

“Renters have the use of the owner's extensive garden, which is really great, especially if you have a dog.”

The location was perfect and lots of wildlife visited the garden. The owner, Carol was very friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. It was nice to see chickens roaming around the garden and the eggs were delicious. The dogs were also very friendly. Very close to shops and pubs. Lots of walks and cycling routes nearby through Thetford Forest. RSPB Lakenheath was nearby where we saw several bitterns closely for the first time. Would definitely recommend the lodge and hope to visit again soon.

Mr GledhillJune 2018

“A good base for exploring both Norfolk and Suffolk.”

Well situated within the town of Brandon for all amenities shops, restaurants etc.
Carol was very helpful with anything we needed. The cottage is situated in the grounds of the Old Rectory with approx. 4 acres of land to explore . (Has a fishpond).
Free range chickens (rescued battery hens) which produce lovely eggs available every day to purchase from the Carol at the Main house (Rectory).
To add to this the weather was wonderful.
